The band's musicianship is on full display, with Dan Rendine's dynamic drumming, Kevin Randolph's driving bass lines, and Johnny Fordyce's shimmering guitar work adding depth and texture.
Lyrically, 'Buzz' takes a clever turn by exploring the theme of phone addiction in a love song format.

This introspective approach adds another layer to the song, making it both relatable and thought-provoking.
Moonroof's Dave Kim explains the inspiration behind the track, stating, "Usually we like to write songs about love/relationships, but for this one we wanted to change things up a bit. We wanted to make a song in a similar love style writing we usually do, but with the 'love interest' being your phone/buzz."
The band's consistent output over the past few years has cemented their status as rising stars in the indie-rock scene. With each release, Moonroof demonstrates their ability to craft anthems that resonate with listeners. 'Buzz' is no exception, delivering an addictive sound that's sure to leave you wanting more.
In their own words, Moonroof describes themselves as "an indie pop/indie rock band who plays upbeat sad music about relationships and self-esteem issues." This poignant description perfectly encapsulates the emotional depth and lyrical honesty found in their music.
'Buzz' is available now on all major streaming platforms. If you're a fan of bands like The 1975, Two Door Cinema Club, or Vampire Weekend, be sure to add Moonroof to your radar. They're a band you won't want to miss.
